In the world of Indiana University basketball the big rivalry has always been with Purdue and Kentucky. Those matchups were very exciting over the decades especially in or near tournament play.

Illinois v. Indiana may be a big deal for the Chief Illiniwek tribe but not for the Hoosier fans so much and I think we know why.

Illinois was usually a guaranteed patsy, good for two conference wins a year. I do miss seeing Lou Henson's comb over quivering during Indiana games. What a sight. I swear that thing on his head was alive.
